Astral Fittings SCH 80 CPVC Plain Elbow 90°

The Astral Fittings Schedule-80 CPVC Plain Elbow 90° is a specific type of plumbing fitting designed for use in CPVC (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) piping systems where higher pressure and temperature requirements are neededConstructed from CPVC, a durable thermoplastic known for its excellent chemical resistance, durability, and ability to handle high temperatures and pressures. CPVC is chosen for its superior performance compared to PVC in applications requiring increased strength and heat resistance.The plain elbow 90° features two openings at a 90-degree angle from each other, allowing for a sharp change in direction for the CPVC piping. It typically does not have any threaded ends or sockets but instead has plain ends, which require solvent welding or gluing to connect securely to CPVC pipes.The "Schedule-80" designation indicates that the fitting is designed to meet specific pressure ratings according to ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standards. Schedule-80 fittings have thicker walls compared to Schedule-40 fittings, making them suitable for high-pressure applications.
